Weekend Project,Final Test- Finished Homemade Highbanker.

took my highbanker out for the final field test yesterday. I am very pleased with the way it is working now. Just did a few tweaks and additions to the spray bar and grizzly. Now that is is ready for a day of some real prospecting / Mining. I would like to get the suction nozzle working right, figure out the venturi or break down and buy one and have it a dredge / highbanker combo. now that the highbanker part is finished.
Well thanks for watching, all feedback will be welcomed..

Thanks, it is and it works very well I must say, I have done some changes to it that I feel improve it over all...

Hey Reed, Thanks for watching and your comment.. For what it is and how cheap it was to build this thing works great, the bed liner works great as a drop down riffle system and catches very fine color. I am very happy with how it works and the same for my truck bed liner dredge I built..

Thanks again for watching and your comments.

:-) Nice . How did you make out ? can you send me some plans on that set up? I like how light it looks and how easy it is to clean up. what angels did you use for it ? like to see more vids man . keep them coming and as for the music , can you turn it down some ? i had a hard time hearing you . but a great vid still.

Hey thanks for watching and your comments. Yeah sometimes the music is a little loud sorry about that.

At this time I am sorry I have no plans, it was a custom as you go project.. I do have another video where I take you through they steps of heating and bending the sluice part of the highbanker..

It works very well, catches the fines good and the clean up is very easy with the drop riffle there is no carpets or miners moss to mess with.. plus the unit is very light...

yeah I think it is going to work just fine now that I got the bugs out, it is nice and light, easy to assemble and disassemble, etc. ...Now for the suction nozzle :o)

Thanks for the comment.

Looks like it's gonna work very well.

I like the idea of the light weight.
